Character Voice Guide

Automatically scans for character names and helps you build consistent voices across the book and series.
  • Discover characters
  • Track appearances
  • Add voice notes & accent cues
  • Detect potential voice collisions
🎙

Pronunciation Research

Find and research complex, rare, and custom terms. Record and organize pronunciations in your personal bank.
  • One-click dictionary searches
  • Record custom pronunciation audio
  • Terms flagged by the scan
  • All terms saved in your Bible
📑

Automated Script Markup

Export a narration-ready script with automatically highlighted elements and pronunciation comments inline — it opens in its own tab.
  • Character names color-coded
  • Chapter headers styled
  • Returning character cues
  • Phonetic pronunciation comments
Scan a manuscript first. Only characters in your cast are highlighted.
💡 Tip: Scan your manuscript first — you can return anytime; your file and scan results stay saved here. Only characters you add to the cast appear highlighted in the marked-up script.

Pronunciation Research

Your per-book pronunciation bank. One-click research links, a recorded snippet per term, all included in the Character Bible.

Audio Occurrence Scan

Finding every spoken occurrence of watched words — with timestamps, DAW markers, and pronunciation-consistency listening — runs on the server ASR engine (spec §10.4) and arrives with the production backend. Your watch list saves now; silence analysis & DAW markers already work in Audio Proofing below the timeline.
